In Defense of PPRuNe

There is a certain amount of drivel on PPRuNe that you have to wade thru to read some interesting posts. Among the drivel I would include the tiresome "wait for the AAIB report" posts. Why would I read PPRuNe if I was only interested in reading the AAIB report? Should each PPRuNe thread have a title, the obligatory "our thoughts and prayers are with the families" and "wait for the (AAIB, NTSB, etc) report, thread closed"? No thanks.
I do appreciate information- didn't know that PT-6's could run on avgas, thanks for the posts on why that was unlikely (but not impossible) to be the cause of this accident. I also found the info on the similar King Air incident interesting reading- while I'm waiting for that AAIB report. In fact that's one of the things I like best about PPRuNe, posts referencing similar incidents which I can look up now. So- keep the interesting posts coming. Jump in with the facts, though I think that is sufficient, no need to disparage others.
